[hometext] => Grief leaves you frightened, angry & guilt-ridden.Sometimes feeling this way, or paradoxically anything less, can seem like a betrayal of the deceased. So much so that some people “tend” rather than “process” their bereavement, & that's only human.
[bodytext] =>  The lawn cushions me as I kneel The wild one, brought to heel Flowers wilting in my hand, These sojourns more than I can stand Here among the silent spaces, I can speak to your good graces Words that I could never say, 'Why do loved ones go away?' Wrapped in a heavy cloak of grief, Guilty absence, no relief You burrowed deep into my skin, So here I am and yes, you win Drawn despite my clear distress At using this place to confess Problems I just can’t get past, 'How come friendships never last?' Anger wells from deep inside, A feeling that will not subside It took so long to connect with you, Your absence I just can’t get through Bitter tears track down my cheeks, These are lessons no one seeks I scream till voiceless at the sky, 'Why do people have to die?'

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
